In essence, schools will no longer be allowed to host their own photoshoots for prospective recruits during unofficial visits according to the proposed rule. Should the new rule take effect, it will not affect how coaches and schools decide to conduct official visits.

From what I've heard, there are many recruiting staffs who will not be sad to see that particular tool go away. It's gotten way out of hand.

Hopefully we can get some of these juco linemen. It will be nice to have them even if it’s just for depth.

Southwest DeKalb DB Therrian Alexander OV’d UAB this weekend. He followed through on that. Said he’d visit the USF weekend, months ago.

BYU Commit.

He picked a good day to visit!

I’m suspecting the latest commitment came from 1 of these 4.
DL Corey Clark, RB Zack Simmons, CB Javon Rogers, or CB Therrian Alexander. If it’s not any of them, it’ll be a surprise to me. Leaning toward it being a surprise.

There wasn’t much noise from the defensive coaches last night, fwiw.

I'm hoping for the RB myself, then Big CC.

On Dilfer's interview on the Next Round today he said we're recruiting a big time TE that has similar measurable to Brock Bowers from when Bowers was in high school. Is the TE we already have committed or someone else?

I bet it's the kid from Ohio we already have.

Looks really good on his Hudl highlight tape.

Don’t think the big get is the BYU kid Terrian Alexander. He’s on Twitter telling BYU fans to come see him play and go cougars.

It’s seems like we are hitting Georgia hard for recruits

Georgia, Texas and Fl have tons of great players to pick from.

Xavier Daisy 6’3 200 lb WR committed today from the state of Georgia

No idea if he's any good, but I love the name:

I doubt this is the recruit our staff was popping off about. I was pretty sold that recruit was the WR that ended up going to EKU.

I think we need a stud RB portal hit this off season. Pair them with Jacob’s when he’s healthy
